Minutes from the January  meeting

Welcome Trans-Oceanic fans. What a meeting we have planned for you this week. We have thirteen members here at the Nathan Hale Library. We have our regular January weather, really cold.

President Chris Cunningham called the meeting to order.

 The first item of business was to relate the slate of new officers. All positions remained the same except Vice President.  Dan Weilacher opted to be a full time Director and Radiogram Editor.  Scott Petty was unanimously voted in as Vice President.  Congratulations Scott.

Next, we discussed of the up-coming 8 week long Vacuum Tube Technology course offered by HLARA. All of the details will follow in a soon to be released e mail.

The presentation for the evening was: The History of the Zenith Trans-Oceanic Radio, presented by Dan Weilacher. This topic was backed up by all of the members bringing their Trans-Oceanic radios for a great display. We had all of the different models except for one. What a great show. See this month’s meeting photos for the complete lineup.  I won’t list what each person brought this month.  Suffice it to say it was probably a Zenith.

We had a small but spirited donation auction.

Dan won two shortwave books and several Antique Radio Classifieds.

Wayne went home with a Phillips 25 MHz Oscilloscope.

Scott picked up a RCA Senior Volt Ohmyst

An EICO signal generator went to John Anderson.

The meeting ran a little long but what a treat to see all those Trans-Oceanics backed up by Dan’s great presentation. If you missed it you really missed a good one.

Remember the next meeting will be February 21st.

 

Respectfully Submitted,

John Anderson HLARA Secretary
